NEW HAVEN - Police are investigating a crash on the New Haven-Woodbridge border that left two people dead and one injured.

Authorities say the accident happened shortly after 5 a.m. near Whaley Avenue and Amity Road. A car apparently struck a curb, ran into a mulch pile and became airborne. It then landed directly on a gas station overhang and flipped to its side.

One man was thrown from the car, but was not seriously hurt. Both victims who died were inside the vehicle.
